1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Propose: This pilot study aimed to apply the central tenets of bloodless surgery and to analyze the effectiveness of specific preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative strategies to minimize the risk for blood transfusion after gynecological surgery in a specific group of patients who refused blood products. Methods: A total of 83 patients undergoing gynecological surgery were included in the study. Forty-two patients received preoperatively oral iron, acid folic, and vitamin B Results: No significant differences were found when comparing the two study groups. The implementation of all procedures to maintain a bloodless surgery has been helpful, in association with the other available procedures, in achieving optimal management and maintenance of hemoglobin levels, even in the most critical situations. Conclusion: In conclusion, implementing the bloodless approach as much as possible could guarantee the patient better and safer clinical and care management. Furthermore, well-designed research is required to clarify further the effects of bloodless surgery in gynecological patients.
